Different people react to different things. It takes many approaches to reach multiple types of humans.
I personally reacted after months of being shown hypocrisy, with the tipping point being when I said there’s no problem with eggs and dairy before I was shown what the egg and dairy industries do.
Part of that process was really realizing, not just knowing but consciously thinking about and considering the fact that humans are also meat. I am meat. The cats I loved were meat. My human family is meat. It’s not okay to eat them in a sandwich. Why is it okay to eat strangers in a sandwich?
No one approach will work on every human, and many people take a lot of different approaches over time to really understand.
Vegan is a philosophy, not a diet. The word you’re looking for is plant-based, not vegan.
A vegan wouldn’t buy leather shoes or woolen sweaters. Someone on a plant-based diet would.
Dogs taste better anyways. Can’t beat a good Elwood’s steak!
AI really has a lot of practice with Shrek.
I gave you some from a girl to help balance things out!
But I can promise you, from many years net positive on reddit and a not disimilar result here, that you’re not reading your own tone.
Be mindful of the tone, only come off as combative against a near universally disliked topic, and know when you don’t care to curate yourself and are ready for the downvotes.
Your wording here makes you out to be combative, and people are combative in response. Read your own comments as if they’re directed AT you. And look specifically at what’s likely to make you want to argue back. You may even be surprised at what can get net positive response with the right wording.
I feel like the difference with Threads is Meta is owned by a much larger threat that can’t be trusted not to use Embrace Extend Extinguish in some evil genius way that ends up working.
Reddit’s owned by some dummy that did a lot of damage to his own platform but isn’t known to be smart enough or have the resources to threaten the fediverse.
I came to Lemmy because I disliked what Steve Huffman did to reddit.
I’d be completely fine with the users being here. I do miss the whole active community for every niche little thing part. If if federates that’d be neat.
It won’t, since greedy Steve Huffman can’t sell the fediverse to Google while screwing 3rd party devs and users that make it what it is. But I’d welcome it.
Sentiment shared.
I went from Firefox, to Chrome (came as default, didn’t swap because browser was fine), to Vivaldi which was really neat when I started learning Chrome was going to become suck, then back to good old Firefox when I learned that Vivaldi is Chromium.
I like how it says the two options are to switch browsers or find a new adblocker.
And switch browsers is suggested first.
And “just accept the ads” is not even an option.
Good on that writer.
This is what I use. Good to hear it’s not depreciated on more modern versions of the OS that my ol’ 6S Plus isn’t able to run.
Welp I just lost The Game. Thanks.
Was on Voyager until it updated past my old OS. Current version of Voyager no longer supports my old 6S Plus.
So now I’m on Thunder. It works. I liked Voyager better, but I won’t complain about an app that still works on my phone.
They cannot make me download their shit app, and when old.reddit dies then that’s when I stop going even my current once a month.
“We are selective about who we work with and trust with large-scale access to Reddit content.”
Sells everyone’s contributions to Google while blocking lesser evils
I am sure he may indeed have screwed Judy.
What a perfect comment to be interpreted in whichever way someone wants to interpret it.
I’ll trash on greedy Steve Huffman any day.
But in this particular case, we really need everyone we can get. If Reddit helps convince more people to vote (for Biden), then so be it.
Not a time to be picky about allies. Not when Trump has a good chance to become effectively the King of the USA.
No kids. They’re a huge, life long commitment that you need to be willing to sacrifice everything for. Your happiness, your sanity, your time, your money… everything.
And I’m not the type of person who wants kids nearly enough to do that.
Especially when people tell me that I should for reasons like having a caretaker when I’m older. I’m not attached to my parents enough to do that. Why would I expect that of anything I pop out? And what a horrible selfish reason to make a new human that is!
If the only reason I’d be having a kid is selfish reasons in the distant future that aren’t even a guarantee, then that’s not worth sacrificing myself for right now.
Nothing against other people who want to be parents, so long as they’re prepared and not doing it as some sort of life insurance or to make a clone of themselves.
If you’ve played it before, it has the same feel imo.
There’s new lands, more QoL, new pals. Nothing drastic I’ve noticed from its release state.
Think Minecraft and then Minecraft after like 3-4 updates.
